Slight Obsession

Ok, I have always known that I really like magnetic notepads. If you know me at all or have spent any time with me, for even one day, you know that I LOVE lists. My friend Jessica always tells the story of me losing my list on the way to a game one day and I totally flipped out and cried. TRUE STORY!
I believe that my life revolves around lists and they are what keep me going. Is it a sickness? YES! But it is who I am.
So, I went to Tyler for Dryver's doctor appointment and did all my errands there. I seriously go to Tyler once a month. Which is very rare. Anyway, as I was running errands I obviously came across one too many magnetic notepads. (Side note: another obsession of mine is the dollar area of Target, Michaels and any other store that would like to start this. I am a SUCKER for a dollar item.)
So, when I get home and start unloading the car I realize I bought 6 magnetic notepads for myself and 2 for gifts. I go to the fridge to see if I am really in desperate need of some. NO, there are already 5 on the fridge. 2 in purse, 2 in the car and 2 in my mommy bag. Not to mention a box of them in the closet, just waiting to be used! I guess you can never be too prepared to make a list:)
I would like to blame my friend Brandi on this slip up. She was with me and obviously didn't stop the madness of the magnetic notepad buying.
So, if you ever need to pick up a little gift for me or any other organized or disorganized friend I would suggest the magnetic notepad:)

Half a Year, WHAT?!?!?!

 

Dryver and Addilyn. He loves to chew on her fingers when they are laying side by side.

 

The teacher in me can't help but read to him everyday. We are already working on comprehension:)

 

We are woring on the sippy. He is actually doing pretty well!

 

He loves to chew on the fruit in the mesh thing. Peaches!

I can't believe Dryver is already 6 months old. In no time we will be planning his 1st birthday party. (Literally, no time. If you know me you know I am already working on the guest list and theme.)
He is such a fun baby!!! Every day with him is something new. When we went to the 6 month checkup we were given the go ahead to try lots of new things. So far he is enjoying the veggies, fruits and cereal. We have also began trying the sippy and mesh fruit chewie. And we moved up to the 6 month pacifier. WOW!!! Lots of changes at six months. He is sitting up on his own and wants to crawl. He can get his legs up under him and his arms but not all at the same time. He LOVES to laugh. If I laugh at him he usually laughs back. Sometimes we get so tickled. I will try to do another slide show when there is more time. I think he might be about to wake up from his morning nap. Then we are headed off to playdate. Mommy and me swimming, so fun!

A Few New Pics with Dryver and Friends

Trying out a slide show!

I Can't Believe He Is 5 Months Old

Man time flies!!! The other night Justin and I were watching home videos we have taken since Dryver was born. It is amazing how he has grown and really changed our lives.
I am now officially a stay-at-home mom. And I LOVE it!
This is how our day is looking:
1. Wake up and eat.
2. I eat.
3. He eats cereal.
4. Go to the gym.
5. Come home and take a morning nap.
6. Wake up and eat.
7. I eat lunch.
8. Play.
9. Afternoon nap.
10. Wake up and eat.
11. Dinner.
12. Cereal.
13. Bath.
14. Eat.
15. Bed.
If you know me, you know I thrive on a schedule. So does this guy. He does not sleep very well if he is off his schedule at night.
Sorry there are no pictures. I will have to get them and do a picture post.
